This task aims to examine how well automated systems can evaluate summaries from different languages. This task takes as input the summaries generated from automatic systems and humans in the summarization Tasks of MultiLing 2015, but also in the Single document summarization tasks of 2015 and 2017.
This year we plan to employ variations of system and gold-standard summaries as inputs, to identify challenges beyond informativeness (e.g. sentence ordering, coherence, etc.) and understand how robust systems are with respect to these challenges.
The output should be a grading of the summaries. Ideally, we would want the automatic evaluation to maximally correlate to human judgment, thus the evaluation will be based on correlation measurement between estimated grades and human grades.

 Please refer to the call for participation regarding important dates for the task.

The task coordinator is dr. George Giannakopoulos (ggianna at iit dot demokritos dot gr)  and the task mailing list is multiling19se at scify dot org.
The result submissions procedure will be announced once the test data are released.
